Overview
Reviewers tell us that Case, Fair, and Oster’s Principles of Economics is one of the all-time bestselling principles of economics texts because they trust it to be clear, thorough and complete. After reading this text, you’ll have a basic understanding of how market economies function, an appreciation for the things they do well, and a sense of things they do poorly.
The 13th Edition features the latest research and new exercises. You’ll begin to learn the art and science of economic thinking and start to look at some policy, and even personal decisions, in a different way.

When you choose a plan, you're signing up for a 4-month 'term'. You can opt to make a one-time payment for the initial 4-month term or pay monthly. If you opt for monthly payments, we will charge your payment method each month until your 4-month term has ended. You can turn on auto-renew in My account at any time to continue your subscription before your 4-month term has ended.
When you purchase a Pearson+ subscription, it will last 4 months. Before your initial 4-month term ends, you can extend your subscription by turning auto-renew on in My account.
If you turn auto-renew on, we’ll automatically renew your subscription and charge you every month until you turn off auto-renew. If you made a one-time payment for your initial 4-month term, you’ll now pay monthly.
